About Us
PG Web Designs Ltd has created over 200 business websites over a 13 year operating period for clients located in Prince George, Vanderhoof, Kelowna, Vancouver and Edmonton. Starting in 1997 with PGMoneysaver Coupons and incorporating as PG Web Designs in 1999 we remember the days of Hot Metal Pro and Netscape prior to the "browser wars". Our professionally designed sites have ranged in size from 5 page brochure websites to database applications and retail shopping carts with hundreds of products and pages.
Our main objective is to create websites that meet the goals of the client while at the same time projecting a professional image to their global and/or regional markets. We specialize in fast loading, simple and functional designs which are completely unique and themed for each client.
